What's your mission? Good question. In our current culture there
are a plethora of missions to choose from. For instance, you could
make a crazy amount of money, and retire at 45 to live the good
life. Maybe your mission is to find the right person to live the
happily-ever-after life. Your mission could focus on making a name
for yourself--becoming famous, or maybe your mission is to settle
down a raise a family. As you know, this list could go on and
on!
So, once again, what is your mission?
To
live as a citizen of the Kingdom of God, we are given a mission.
When Jesus called his first disciples, he gave them a specific
vision of what they would become if they followed him. Here is the
mission:
“And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers
of people.” ~ Matthew 4:19
The
call from Jesus is to follow him so that he can train them for the
mission of "fishing for people". Obviously, there is a lot
to unpack there, but one can't deny that the mission isn't evident.
Following Jesus is to lead to a mission of "fishing for
people."
